COLLEGE Recent Publications by Members of the Faculty. During the past summer several mem- bers of our Faculty have been represented in various magazines and journals and in the belief that the College in general would be glad to be more fully acquainted with these publications the following list has been prepared. In the September Century, Miss Kath- arine Lee Bates, of the class of 'So, pub- lished "What is the Spirit?" a brief lyric with a certain poignant suggestiveness in its fine lines that seldom appears in mag- azine poetry. A sonnet by Miss Bates, in memory of Mrs. Alice Gordon Gulick, ap- peared in the Boston Evening Transcript shortly after Mrs. Gulick's death, in Sep- tember. "The Lover of Trees in Italy," by Miss Jewett, was published in Scribner's Mag- azine for June. This article, beautifully illustrated with photographs taken by Miss Jewett during her last visit to Italy, is an eminently poetic appreciation of Italian landscapes and one which gives the reader a very vivid picture. Miss Sherwood's "The Princess and the Microbe" appeared in the fiction number of Scribner's Magazine issued in August. This is the second in a short series of Prin- cess stories. In the August number of the Atlantic Monthly, was Miss Sher- wood's novelette, "Daphne." The story, with its intensely real Italian setting, is told in a style of rare and impressive beau- ty that has already attracted wide atten- tion. "Daphne" will be published in book form by Houghton & Mifflin during October. Verses by Miss Peabody, who has been for two years instructor in English litera- ture, appeared in the August and in the October Harper, and in the October Scrib- ner. A new volume of poems by Miss Peabody, "The Singing Leaves," is just announced by Houghton & Mifflin. The educational number of the Church- man contained an illustrated article by Miss Shackford, discussing "The Eastern Colleges for Women." Miss Florence Jackson contributed^ to the Journal of the American Chemical Society "The Delicacy of Tests Employed for the Detection of Metals," a study em- bodying the results of certain experiments performed in our chemistry laboratory. "The Industrial History of the United States," by Miss Coman, is promised by the Macmillan Company, as is also Miss Lock- wood's "Lexicon to the Poe'tical Works of John Milton." Wellesley may claim some share in Professor George Herbert Palmer's new volume. "The Nature of Goodness," published by Houghton & Mifflin, since he lectured on this subject at Wellesley last year. Miss Scudder, who has returned to Wellesley after an absence of two years, is the author of "A Listener in Babel," soon to be published by Houghton & Mif- flin. In the near future Miss Bowen's trans- lation of "Beowulf" is to appear in the "Canterbury Classics." COLLEGE NEWS College IRews, Press of N. A. Lindscy & Co., Boston. Publisher! weekly.

The groves and long ave- nues, where the gray squirrels love to play, have never seemed more inviting than on these sunny afternoons; and the masses of green and red and yellow foliage around the lake have surely never been more glo- rious than in the light of these October mornings. Our autumn riches are increas- ing year by year as our grand old trees grow more and more stately; and we are beginning to realize how profitable an investment it is possible for a man to make with Nature, and how great a benefactor is the man who plants trees for future generations to enjoy. There are many things about Wellesley which go to increase that great debt which we all owe to the founder of our college; and it is impossible to realize that Mr. Durant was his own landscape gardener without feeling at the same time a new thrill of appreciation and gratitude for these oaks and elms and walnuts and beeches that have so largely helped to make Wellesley the College Beautiful. It was on the third of October that Mr. Durant died; and it is especially fitting that at this bright season of the year we commemorate the life of noble service and consecration of one who especially loved bright and beautiful things.

He believed that a life of truest harmony with God and man was entirely consistent with a love for the beauty which God created and which it is natural for man to enjoy. It was his desire to make Wellesley College as beau- tiful as possible, both without and within while it was his dearest wish that all the influences of the place might be favorable to the growth of the inner and higher beauties of mind and soul. While Mr. Durant was laying out the college grounds, beautifying and preparin them for his beneficent purpose, his thoughts must have often gone forward hopefully and prayerfully, to these years and to the years still in the future, full of great possibility and promise for Wellesley women; and surely the fortunate girls who come here to spend a year or two years or four years "' 'neath the oaks' which he planted will every year remem ber with reverence the name that is dear to all who love Wellesley with the truest understanding of what Wellesley means. The business managers wish to thank the subscribers for their patience and for- bearance with the many errors caused by the new: mailing system.

The main object 01 the trip was to decide upon the advisability of locating a marine observatory there, similar to that al Naples. The Zoologists were enthu- siastic in their approval of the place as a location for such an observatory. Dr. Willcox is at present engaged in some original work on limpits. A new map of the College has been gotten out this year. The map is based on the last United States Survey, and gives the location of all the village houses as well as a complete plan of the entire campus. The map is small and sells for five cents. These maps can be obtained at the College Book Store. Miss Mary Applewhite Bacon, whose stories of Georgia life have attracted so much attention, is visiting her cousin, Miss Katherine Lee Bates. Miss Bacon will spend the winter in the north giving a series of readings and lectures on the child labor conditions in Georgia. The Village students are enthusiastic over Mr. Perkins since he has had the sidewalk put down by the chapel road. All of us who heard Mr. Macdougall's lecture, on Thursday afternoon, enjoyed a great treat. His topic was: "The Princi- ple of Unity in Music," and his main theme was that this Unity is developed by Rythm, Melody, Harmony, or a combination of these. Mr. Macdougall illustrated this theme fully by playing first parts of familiar pieces and lastly by a magnificent render- ing of "The New World Symphony,1" by Dvorak. Miss Mary B. Keen, formerly of 1904, was married on Septem- ber the first to Mr. Marshall of Delaware. Ohio. Mr. Marshall has the chair of Economics at Wesleyan University.

The question in regard to the need of a general secretary in the Christian Association is now being agitated. The Associa- tion is so well organized, and the girls, who have charge of the different departments, carry on their work so well, that some of the members think that a general secretary is not necessary. But it is not for doing the work, which we can do ourselves that we want such an officer in the Association. Though she would be of inestimable value in advising and helping the girls in all branches of their work, her greatest service would be in connection with the students who live in the Village. On account of the crowded condition of the College dormitories, her home would of necessity be in the Village among the new students. Here she could do that work which it is almost im- possible for the Christian Association to do without her. We can form Bible and Mission classes. We can ask the girls to join the Association and cordially invite them to Thursday evening services, but we know that it is very difficult for them to come. It is doubtful if even the most interested are present many times during the year, and since they cannot come to the Christian Association, we need a general secretary to take the Christian Association to them, to teach them the different branches of the work which is being carried on, and to show them in what way they can be of service. We need her to broaden the field of every branch of our work, so that it can take in all who are now interested, but most of all, we need her to interest those who are now more or less indifferent. Abbie Stoddard, 1905. The elevator question again? Yes, for so long as there is only one elevator in College Hall, so long as there are class rooms on the fourth and fifth floors, will the question of elevator pre- cedence and etiquette be constantly under discussion. This for the Freshmen — Doubtless there is not one of you who has not been told that the Faculty and Seniors and upper class girls have the right of way in the elevator. And yet, despite frequent and repeated tellings, some of you forget, and dash in, ahead not only of Seniors, but even of members of the Faculty. The one plausible excuse that may be offered is, perhaps, that one can't always be sure whether the individual in question is a real Senior or no, and all of you are not, as yet, sufficiently ac- quainted with the Faculty. But isn't it always the best plan to err on the side of prudence, — to stand back for a girl who may prove to be only a Sophomore, on the chance that she may be a Senior without the insignia of her rank? And now this to the Seniors — A group of girls is waiting for the elevator, just after chapel, let us suppose. The Freshmen, anxious to master the elevator eitquette of Wellesley, stand back respectfully, and allow the Faculty and Seniors to go in before them. And they themselves are shut out entirely. However, there are four flights of stairs between them and the zoology laboratories, and their vitality must be saved for athletics, and so — they wait. But alas for all their hopes! When the prize is just within reach, or rather, within step, a group of Seniors come from the post office, and by the mere virtue of their caps and gowns, gains an entrance, and again they are shut out. But, frankly, does this condition of affairs seem wholly just and right; that girls who haven't been waiting, but who happen along just then, should ride up, just because they're Seniors, while girls who have been waiting must be excluded, just be- cause they're Freshmen? Would it not be fairer, to all con- cerned, to have an "overflow meeting," a second edition for each trip fifth-floor-ward, and let those go in first who just missed going before ? This solution of the elevator problem has, so far as I know, never been proposed. Is it not worth at least a trial, and will you not give it your support, to prove its success — or failure? G. C. H. III. The first day that we went to chapel as Juniors, there was a strange, new feeling in our upper class bosoms as we took our places in the body of the chapel and realized that one more step would take us into the cap and gown seats. That first day we felt the importance and grandeur of entering by the middle door and of sauntering up the middle aisle to our places and who could have persuaded us to give up the joy of that march from chapel with its interesting question of who would be our part- ners ? _ That was the first day ; already it has become an old story and visions of crammed mail-boxes and enticing nine o'clocks, draw _ us into a hurried departure by the side aisles, only to wait in the vestibule for the column of girls to pass by. This method of procedure is hardly fair to the Sophomores and Fresh- men for to them belong the side aisles and a precipitate flight into their lawful territory is certainly an intrusion. Are we not glad of the privilege of walking out of the middle door in all our glory as Juniors? We all love 1905, then let us add to her fame by standing strong and long (if need be) instead of sneaking off in a medley of Sophomores, Freshmen and Specials. R. H., 1905.

As rain was the order "I the weathi i i ram for Saturday, rain i leedcd to fall in the afternoon and continued to fall through the evening, regardless of the fact thai Saturday nighl was the occasion of the lirsi regular Hani Swallow entertainment and everybody wished to come, and thai moreover i1 was to In- a college play and everyone wanted to see it, Doubtless the r did keep away many people who wished to be present, but it certainly did no1 keep away those who intended i" come and all the available space in the rear of the Barn was utilized for the umbrellas and rain-coats of the adventurous. By half-past seven all the floor in the Eronl of the Barn and all the chairs were filled by an enthusiastic audience and "standing-room only" was the fate of the late-comers. Before the play and be- tween the ads, the various college and class songs wen- sung and cheers given for the important persons of the occasion, the Freshmen thus becoming instructed in the way that they should go, As was very fitting for the first Bam Swallow' entertainment it was a thoroughly wellesley occasion throughout, a Wellesley audience ami a Wellesley girl's play, and Miss Hart in her wel- come to the Bam Swallows announced that as far as possible during the year, programs would be college in spirit and the plays given, the work of the girls. The play for Saturday evening, entitled "Copy" was written by Miss Helen Manatt of the class of 1903. This is the second original play which has been presented at "the Barn". We all remember Miss More's play last spring. The two plays, utterly unlike in setting and treatment, simply show the diversity of talent which may be found in the College. "Copy" proved to be a decidedly bright and entertaining little play, cleverly worked up in many points, and if we may judge of success by applause, the play was certainly a success. The various parts were well taken by the different girls and all the characters deserve com- mendation. Particular praise should be given to Miss Daniels who did exceedingly good work as George Sanderson, the author, and Miss McCormick. who acted a rather difficult part well. Of the minor characters. Miss Fox was excellent as Mrs. Norcross and Miss Stecnc, as Tom Norcross, was a general favorite. The different scenes were well placed, the "literary-tea" with the literary enthusiasts and "buds" being especially attractive. The cast for the play was as follows : George Sanderson, an aesthetic author Helen Daniels Lorna Sanderson, his wife, ex-authoress .... Florence McCormick Mrs. Norcross, mother to Lorna, a bustling New Englander, Edith Fox Father Norcross, father to Lorna, a harmless old gentleman, Edna Moore Dr. Tom Norcross, brother to Lorna, Jessie Steene Mrs. Tom Norcross, Tom's wife, a model housekeeper, Olive Chapman Mrs. Jones Elizabeth Marston Literary Woman Louise Adams Society buds, old ladies and gentlemen, young men: Miss Ladd, Miss Rossington, Miss Jeffries, Miss Clause, Miss Ware, Miss Story, Miss Haddon.

CONFESSIONS OF A SOPHOMORE. It came to pass long years ago, in the forgotten days when we_ too, consulted maps, (vide Book store, five cents). I was rushing down the main corridor in College Hall, the objective point being the elevator. I had just a minute and a half to get to L. R. 4, and as the elevator was at hand, I was mak- ing for it at a rapid pace, when I espied a kindly looking gentle- man also approaching in haste. "Ah," said I to myself, "one of the gentleman professors I have heard rumors of." And then the wild thought seized me "Is it proper to let him enter first?" Ftill well had I been instructed in etiquette scholastic. Full well I knew the awful reverence due to Senior and Faculty. But here was a clash of two schools of etiquette, which baffled ver- dant solution. In mad haste I weighed the pros and cons. Mean- while we were both rapidly nearing the elevator. "Well, "said I to myself, said I, "its best to err on the right side;" and as this conclusion and the door had been reached simultaneously, I smiled sweetly, "bowed slightly, and stood aside to let the gentle- man pass. But he, too, stood bowing and smiling on his side the door, and seeing my mistake, I started to enter. But oh, horribile dictu ! He caught my meaning at the self-same moment and also made to enter. A collision ensued, a rebound on the part of both, and a repetition of the smiles and bow, much to the amusement of the patiently (?) waiting maid. Again we yielded simultaneously to the other's courtesy and again the collision, the rebound, the smile, the bow. The situation became un- bearable. I rushed blindly for the stairs and arrived in Bible four minutes late. The next day I discovered that my gentleman professor was Mr. Ellis. WELLESLEY COLLEGE RECIPES. Senior Reception Drink. — In a large faculty parlor place a dozen Seniors. Stir in gradually a few more Seniors and after carefully preparing, sprinkle in a few Freshmen. Mix thoroughly and pour on a few cups of cocoa and coffee. Flavor to taste with one joke and a pinch of standard remarks. If done with care this makes a very successful drink. NOTICE. R. W. P., in the Free Press for October 14th bemoans the lack of suitable study accommodations in College Hall for the class of 1907. We have one room in Music Hall, number 24, on the sec- ond floor, set apart for study, and all students, whether in the Music Department or not, are cordially invited to use it. This is not a large contribution to the general welfare, but it is gladly offered. H. C. Macdougall. ALUMNA NOTES.

It is with great pleasure that the College looks forward to the course of readings offered by the Elocution Department. These readings will be given by the very best platform artists that the country can produce. The course will open Monday evening, October the twenty-sixth, with Miss Beatrice Herford. Miss Herford. sister of Oliver Herford, the well-known artist, is essen- tially a humorist. Her readings consist of original monologues, in which she is so clever that though only one character speaks presupposed conversations between other characters are plainly intelligible to the audience. "Miss Herford pins up imaginary veils, puts on " imaginary hats, takes off imaginary coats, and with the aid of a single chair is an inquisitive child in the street car, or 'An American Shop Girl,' alternately waiting on her cus- tomer and chattering to her mates." Miss Herford's mono- logues all have to do with the every-day scenes of life and are full of every-day humor. ■ She has met with great success both in this country and in Europe. .. In the readings of Mrs. E. Charlton Black the College will have a contrast-to the humorous. monologues of Miss Herford. Mrs. Black does not seek to amuse. Her aim is to make great litera- ture known and loved. This she does by the most sympathetic and appreciative interpretation of the works of the great mas- ters. Her selections are from the great works of our tongue. "The Idylls of the King," "Sartor Resartus," "Andrea del Sarto," etc. The success of Mrs. Charlton Black in Canada, in the United States and in Europe is inestimable. She has made the world feel that platform reading is an art and that there are great days in store for the elocutionist. Mrs. Black is a Scotch- woman by birth arid is especially charming in readings from the Scotch dialect. Her program at Wellesley will contain one or two Scotch selections. Of Mr. Leland Powers, whose name appears as the third art- ist on the circular isstted by the Elocution Department, there is little need to say anything. . We all know him and we have all laughed and marvelled at his inimitable presentation of "The Taming of the Shrew" and "Monsieur Beaucairc" We cannot but be glad that he is coming again. Undoubtedly a rare opportunity is. offered us in this course of readings. Tickets will be on sale at the College Book Store, on and after Saturday, October the seventeenth. Tickets for the course are one dollar; single tickets fifty cents. The num- ber of tickets is limited. HERRICK'S, COPLEY SQUARE, NEAR BACK BAY POST-OFFICE, BEST TICKETS FOR ALL THE THEATRES.
